B- and C-List characters I love (in no particular order)

Nightcrawler (why he doesn't have his own series, I'll never know.)
The Question (Victor Zsasz and Renee Montoya. But I'm kinda hoping NuDC bring Vic back.)
Captain Marvel (as in SHAZAM!)
DeadMan
Plastic Man

Blue Beetle (number 3) and Booster Gold both have well written recent series. Also both characters are underused. Booster Gold is even billed as "The Greatest Hero History Will Never Know".

I totally agree about booster. He gets no respect because his actions are never seen, but is such a deep character....

He's head of Justice League International now. As long as the series continues to be well written, things should begin to look up for him.

I have heard that the writer of Justice League International made Booster Gold Canadian is that true or is he still from 25th century Gotham City?

DUDE! I totally forgot about Booster Gold! It was one of the better titles of Old DCU. I may have to check out JLI to see if they do him justice in the DCnU.

It will be very interearing to see how a Deadman TV series turns out. Bummer about Nightcrawler. And for the sake of a bit of levity in DCnU,they need to bring back Plastic Man,

Also: Howard The Duck. I miss him.

The new Booster Gold stuff goes back to the original 52. After that he has his own series (Booster Gold with the infinity symbol replacing the double o in Booster)that currently has 5 volumes collected. Following that is the Time Masters collection which involves the search for Bruce Wayne throughout history. Finally there is the Generation Lost storyarc about the original JLI with the new Blue Beetle added in.

It is being written by the guy who wrote supernatural. I love Supernatural Sooooo it should be greatness.

Howard the Duck was in Marvel Zombies..5 and 6 I ant to say. And he had a cameo in Marvel Zombies vs The Army of Darkness.

Static has always been one of my favourites 'understated' heroes from the DC verse. From Marvel, I adore White Tiger (Angela) and Nightcrawler.

One of my favorites was Ragman....he was part of Shadowpact but that didn't last long as a comic. He is also one of the few Jewish super heroes.

Yes! I loved Ragman in Shadowpact. I've seen him in a few other things as well and he's always a delight.

Booster Gold is now my Favorite Hero. And I'm kinda pissed his history as Time Master was erased, what does this means for the timeline? And Rip Hunter? And Alexandra? And Rani? And Michelle? And... Sorry, got out of topic there. But I hope Michael gets more attention in the DCnU
